Cinnamon Chocolate Thumbprints

At the beginning of December I complained that November's posts were way too brown and promised all things colorful and sparkly. Looking back on December, you probably needed sunglasses to view most of them. Some bright and sparkly and some just loud and tacky.

So it's a new year and I want it to be all about balance. Starting now.

These cookies are brown with a splash of color.

They also have smaller amounts of butter and sugar, also New Year appropriate since many people are all about reducing in January to compensate for holiday indulgences.I had some leftover milk chocolate to use up which fit perfectly with this recipe.

The first batch I made came out way to dry so I have made some adjustments.

I love this bowl I bought in the Maldives. It has cinnamon sticks embedded in the wood and smells amazing.
